Key Takeaway
Candle boxes are printed paperboard cartons built to carry glass jars, tins and votives without rattling in the mail. We work in white SBS board, natural kraft, rigid wrapped chipboard and corrugated shippers, made to order from 300 units, and print full color across the panel so a scent name or seasonal design reads clearly on the shelf.
A dieline and digital proof are part of every order, and production timing is confirmed once artwork is approved. Insert planning is available for brands shipping glass direct to a customer, and the format works equally well for a single hero candle or a boxed multi-piece gift set.
Candle Box Variants
We build custom candle box packaging across these formats, all made to order from 300 units.
- Tuck-End Folding CartonsA reverse or straight tuck carton that ships flat and folds up around a single jar or tin.
- Kraft Tuck-End BoxesNatural uncoated stock for a botanical or artisan-facing candle line.
- Rigid Wrapped BoxesA wrapped chipboard box with a lift-off lid for luxury single-candle presentation.
- Gable CarriersA handled box with a locking base, useful for gift sets and market-stall sales.
- Window BoxesA die-cut panel with a film insert that lets the candle show through.
- Tray-and-Sleeve BoxesA fitted tray that slides into an outer sleeve for a two-piece unboxing moment.
